Original subtitles

Push, Micaela.

Harder, come on.

- Push! - Ah!

A bit more, a bit more. It's almost here, a bit more.

Come on!

Harder!

Tell me what you see.

- I don't see anything, damn it. - Me either.

I can't help because I'm a man, it's absurd.

It's their custom, Vargas.

- Irene, are you ok? - Yes, I'm fine.

- I don't know what to do. - It might have the cord around it's neck.

Do you know the Somersault manueuver?

Enough.

God, woman, I'm a doctor, what kind of gypsy customs...?

Don't you want your grandchild to be born?

Fine, lady, you're in charge.

Quickly, Irene, take this.

- What do I do with this? - They're forceps.

With the paddles, first one side, than the other

you grab the baby's head and pull it out.

- I brought water and towels. - About time.

Wash it. Have you been to Tibidabo?

- Irene, are you sure you're ok? - Yeah, I just need a minute.

It's coming.

Push! Push! Come on, I've got it.

Push. Push, push now. Push, Micaela.

Push!

I've got it, push a little more. Push.

Here, here.

She's here.

Relax, I have her.

She's here, she's here.

Here.

She's here now, relax.

She's here.

It's a girl.

She's beautiful, Micaela.

Look how she moves, what grace she has.

She'll be called Carmen.

Carmen Amaya.

A Virus from Another Time

Day 1

You've left Irene in the past?

Her symptoms pointed to the Spanish flu.

You left her behind because of a flu? - It was a worldwide epidemic.

That flu killed 50 million people in one year,

five times more that World War I.

- But that was in... - 1918

Almost a century has passed since then...

And the population has lost it's immunity.

If we bring it here, we could have a situation like in America.

The conquistadors carried smallpox to the New World

- and millions of people died. - Today we have antibiotics

But they don't cure viral infections.

Listen to him. Vargas saved Fernando the Catholic

during the attack on Barcelona.

There's a reason he's head of medical services.

And I'm the one in charge here.

I want her back.

If we bring her back, we'll bring the virus to the present.

We could start a pandemic on a planetary scale.

The flu virus is highly contagious.

I just accepted this position and you don't know me very well.

From now on the bad habits of the past are over.

And one of them is that here we never leave any agent behind.

We aren't going to leave Irene. Period.

You'll regret making this decision.

I don't like to be threatened.

It's not a threat, it's a warning.

Very good, a little bland, though.

Thanks for waiting.

By the way, Alonso,

it wouldn't be a bad idea to come home a little late tomorrow.

- I invited... - Another woman, right?

- Yes, another woman. - If they knew they were sleeping with

a guy born in 1943...

they'd flip out.

God, you're insatiable.

You like to fornicate more that Lope de Vega.

Well, today for me, tomorrow for you.

I doubt that. Ah...

The women in this century and I are like water and oil.

Maybe the water part has something to do with that.

- What are you talking about? - Your higene, Alonso.

Look, I served in Ceuta, nothing scares me

- but your... - You too.

I am going to tell you something. An excess of water softens the body

and opens the pores, letting sicknesses enter.

- Just so you know. - Ok, relax, it was just a suggestion.

If I were you, tomorrow I'd open my pores before I went out, eh?

Thank you, Ramón. I'll take care of the rest.

After you take the suit off, wash up thoroughly.

Of course, don't worry. Fine, see you tomorrow.

Will she get better?

That depends on her defenses.

She's strong,

but we'll have to see how she progresses over the next 48 hours.

I'm sorry if I seemed like a dictator earlier.

I only want to improve our treatment of the agents.

For the moment, we'll be discrete. I don't want to raise the alarm.

Close the infirmary tomorrow and see patients in another room.

- With what excuse? - You'll think of something.

- Day 2

Guess where I'm sending you?

Well lady, I have a slight idea.

To the April Fair in Seville. How I envy you.

What? I am from Seville, and these outfits are not from my home.

What's the mission?

An alert has arrived from the Ministry in 1991.

They've found a bad shipment of fish

that has to be taken off the market.

Why don't they call the health department in that time?

That would be fine if the boxes didn't come stamped with this date.

Someone who travels in time is getting rid of

- all this bad food. - You have to figure out who it is

and destroy the bad shipment.

A scandal in Seville one year before the '92 World Expo.

could be disasterous.

They still celebrate World Expositions

-in this century? - Yes.

- And what is that? - Amelia will explain on the way.

Door... 2020.

In one hour an agent will be waiting for you in Seville.

- Alonso. - Eh?

You smell very nice.

It's about time.

Thank you.

- Good, I thought you weren't coming. - Putting on this suit isn't easy.

- How is she? - Stable, still in danger.

This is insane. I'd like to know

if they would have ordered this operation if the patient was a low-level agent

- instead of a boss. - No way in hell, I'm telling you.

Hey, how's it going?

How are you?

See you.

Alonso.

Let's go.

We'll all have a drink in Seville.

Come on, let's go.

- Do they wear this every day? - It's very uncomfortable?

- Have you put on perfume?

- It was Pacino's idea. - Good idea.

Fine, enough already.

If I smelled bad before, why did no one say anything?

So you wouldn't get upset.

It's closed.

They've blocked them.

"Attention all employees

Exit the door area in an orderly fashion

and proceed to the cloisters immediately.

I repeat.

Exit the door area in an orderly fashion

and proceed to the cloisters immediately.

This is not a drill.

Attention all employees.

Exit the door area in an orderly fashion

and proceed to the cloisters immediately."

- Do you know what happened? - They'll tell us upstairs.

"...door area in an orderly fashion

and proceed to the cloisters immediately.

This is not a drill.

Attention all employees.

Exit the door area in an orderly fashion

and proceed to the cloisters immediately.

I repeat. Exit the door area in an orderly fashion

and proceed to the cloisters immediately.

This is not a drill."

Close outer door.

Hey! Careful.

- I can't wait to take off this dress. - You don't like it?

- It's too provocative. - Too provocative?

On Ramblas street they sell little flamenco dolls as souveniers from Barcelona.

- I don't believe you. - Yep.

If that is our future we are in trouble.

Exits closed.

What's going on?

- There'll be more people infected soon. - I warned you.

I ordered you to seal off the infirmary.

Do you know how it happened?

Not yet, but since one of them is my nurse,

he probably got infected taking off his suit.

What an idiot.

If you'd like, I'll bring you a suit, and we can see how well you handle it.

Whenever you want. It doesn't take a Harvard education to put it on.

Fine, this isn't the time for arguments.

- We have to inform the employees. - I know that.

Have you advised the agents in the field that they can't return?

Angustias is doing it.

Well, that's done.

It will last another 5000 years until the next touch-up.

- You are an artist, Mariano. - I know.

I almost want to sign it and everything.

If they told us while we were studying Restoration we would be doing this...

Yes?

Hello, Angustias.

What do you mean we can't return?

Do you know how cold it gets in the Stone Age, woman?

Fine, fine.

They've closed off the Ministry, the thing's infected.

There's a Spanish flu epidemic.

They might have the Spanish flu there,

but here we're going to catch a paleo pnemonia.

You didn't happen to bring a sweater, did you?

Attention, please.

Quiet.

Quiet!

We've gathered you here to inform you...

that you're giving us back our Christmas bonuses.

Quiet, please!

This is not a joke.

There's been an outbreak of flu in the Ministry.

All the doors have been closed down.

We are being quarantined.

Because of a flu?

It is a virus from last century, very agressive.

All the missions have been suspended.

It is now prohibited to leave or enter the building.

We can't take the risk of infecting someone outside.

I'm fine, it's just that I'm a smoker,

but I'm quitting.

Well you all can forget about going out to have a drag in the smoker's lounge.

That door is closed, too.

And until there are new orders

all communication with the outside is also prohibited.

All apropriate measures are being taken

so that the epidemic doesn't get out.

Quiet.

This is a very particular flu

that should be treated from the onset of symptoms.

What makes it so particular?

It's...

Spanish flu.

Well if it's Spanish it can't be that bad, right?

Maybe it's called that because the virus is small and grumpy.

This isn't the time for jokes.

This is the first time something like this has happened since I've been here .

Attention, please.

Doctor Vargas will go over the symptoms with you.

If anyone notices anything similar, even if it's slight,

they should go to medical services.

The symptoms are:

a wet cough,

sudden high fever,

headaches,

difficulty breathing,

chest pain,

weakness in the limbs and dizziness.

- Are you all right? - No.

Master Diego!

- Looks like there's another one here. - No, I am fine, I am fine.

I'm fine.

We're going to die, we're going to die.

Hey, leeches, let me out of here!

I am not sick. Hey, lady! Let me go!

- Damn you. - Alonso, save your strength.

If this flu is as serious as they say, we're going to need it.

Yes, you are crazy if you think

that I am going to just lie here like a weakling.

Vargas! There has been a mistake get me out of here.

I'll be right with you.

How are you?

Couldn't you...

give Alonso a sedative?

It could worsen his respiratory distress and cause a crisis.

- My whole body hurts. - You're due for a anti-inflammatory.

- It will help that.

Do you have a pen?

Yes, here.

It'll just be a pinch.

- Are you going to bleed us? - Lower your voice.

I just need a sample.

Oh, Doctor, here you are. There's another patient.

All right, take their vital signs.

I'll be right there.

But, what is this nonsense you're telling me?

Susana has broken all the protocols.

She's put everyone in danger to save Irene.

Everyone's lives, and all of Spanish history.

Yes, it's a disaster.

With your sense of discipline

it must be difficult for you to go behind your superior's back.

You are and always will be my only superior.

Keep me informed, while you can.

I'll try to pull some strings here on the outside.

- Germán is sick too. - Germán?

The caretaker. You never even learned his name...

- Okay, Germán. - Do you know how Irene is doing?

- No one tells us anything around here. - Attention, please.

- What a mess. - "For your safety,

- keep away from..." - Hey, doctor.

Vargas!

- Hey, Doctor Vargas. - Be more careful.

I'm very sorry, Doctor.

Doctor.

- I want to volunteer. - Angustias...

I know you're under-staffed. You could use my help.

It looks like you've got a stain, Doctor.

Darn, ink from my pen.

- Milk works wonders on that. - Thank you. I'll go change now.

- I can start right now if you want. - Angustias, it's very dangerous.

Well, it's not the end of the world to contract it.

A lot of people have survived the disease, right?

20% of those infected died, does that seem like nothing?

- Angustias, that's one in five. - I'm not going to leave them alone.

- I must be a bad person. - Why?

For not volunteering.

I think you and I will be more useful in other ways.

- Doing what? - I'm not sure yet.

- Are you looking for something? - Truthfully, you.

Come, sit.

It will be difficult explaining to your parents why you didn't come home this time.

- We'll think of something. - There are more important things happening right now.

Is there internet?

Yes, in here, yes

I've sent Galindo to drink something. Why?

I wanted to look for information about the disease.

No one tells us anything here.

I don't know anything more than you.

Oh.

Answer it.

- Yes? - Hello. Hello, are you receiving this?

- Over. - Yes, loud and clear.

Are you Ernesto Jiménez?

- Over. - Yes, that's me.

Listen, you don't have to repeat the word "over" every time.

It would be better if you connect the camera.

Let me see, I'll try it.

- There. - Good afternoon.

- I am Doctor Marañon. - Gregorio.

You've heard about our crisis?

Yes, from my friend Salvador.

Salvador is up to date?

In 1918 I was part of the international committee

that studied the virus.

Ask me what you need to know, I'll see if I can help you with anything.

Is Doctor Vargas there?

You'll have to speak with Doctor Vargas later.

How did you manage to stop the pandemic?

Sadly, we didn't manage to stop it.

It simply wore itself out after a year.

We didn't even manage to get them to stop calling it "Spanish".

I've read that they called it that because Spain was the only country

- that didn't censure the news. - That's true.

After the Great War the affected countries

didn't want to publish more bad news.

The virus spread rapidly

when the soldiers returned to their countries.

It must have been horrible.

I've never seen so many people die in such a short time.

Many of my friends died.

Some of my colleagues even inoculated themselves with the virus

in order to test vaccines, but it was useless.

I think I remember a German pharmeceutical company

continued experimenting with infected cadavers.

Schäuble, if I remember correctly, but they never had any success.

- What a shame, that would have been good for us. - And them.

Remember what happened in 2009 with the so-called Influenza A.

- What happened? - Goyo, supper!

That's Delores, I have to go. If my wife finds out

that the Internet exists I'm done for.

What happened with the Influenza A?

WHO declared it a world-wide pandemic.

That set off a healthcare panic

and the media spread the paranoia.

They should have left economic interests out of it.

They wanted to make money off the people's health?

Hasn't that always been the case?

Governments spent astronomical amounts

on millions of vaccines that were never used.

It's the pharmaceutical companies that always come out on top.

Those with honor, follow me!

Those with honor, follow me!

- María - Ernesto.

- María, what are you doing here? - I...

I confused the doors.

Careful.

Is that Maria Pita? Who defended La Coruña against the English?

Yes, the very same.

She's a heroine with a horrible sense of direction.

- I'll take her to the infirmary. - You might get sick.

- In my time I survived 3 epidemics of the plague.

The devil looks after his own.

Come on, María, slowly.

You can't be here.

- I wanted to check on Alonso. - This is a restricted zone.

- Leave. - Ok, ok.

Attention, please. Supper will be served in shifts

according to date of birth.

19th and 20th centuries, at 9:00pm.

17th and 18th centuries, at 9:30pm.

-15th and... - Sorry, I was just...

- Where were you? - Around.

I told you to put on the suit. We don't need anyone else sick.

I'm sorry, Francisco...

When you see your life pass before your eyes,

you are going to die, right?

If that were true, I would have already died 1000 times.

I don't do anything but go over my life.

- What did you dream? - I dreamed...

Master Pacheco was there.

Thanks to him I became a painter.

He took me on I was 12 years old.

I was just a child.

My God, how me made me sweat.

You call this painting?

You would have a brighter future if you learned to bake bread.

He thought everything I did was shit.

He was very hard on me, very hard.

He never gave me his approval.

Not even a bit of encouragment, nothing. Nothing.

I came to believe that I was no good at painting.

So I decided to enter a contest

to get away from him and to get to court, of course.

When I went to present my works...

You really didn't know that Pacheco was on the selection board?

No.

Good luck. I am leaving.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Mister Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez.

Your turn.

Congratulations, Mister Velázquez.

You have been selected.

The determination of Master Paceco to support you

has been reason enough to render a verdict.

Thank you, Master Paceco.

Do not celebrate too much, Diego.

This is just the first step.

Remember: out of every ten works a painter paints

only one is any good.

After working so hard

I am going to die without painting "Las meninas".

- Relax, you'll get better. - And if I don't?

I need a canvas and brush.

I have to paint them.

- The Prime Minister's office called. - How did they find out?

We don't know, but that's just what we need right now.

I told them that everything is under control.

Ah, you're very optimistic.

Now they'll be on us all the time.

- They're very worried about Velázquez. - Yeah, if it were only Velázquez.

Two restorers trapped in Altamira.

An intertemporal food problem in 1991.

- And Maria Pita is sick. - She's a Ministry agent?

They recruited her yesterday to help with an issue with Philip II

with something called The Escorial Circle.

Today was her first day at the Minstry in her time period.

- How did she end up here? - She showed up by mistake in 2016.

She made a mistake with the doors. - I'm sorry, who is Maria Pita?

If she survives, she will stop 12,000 English soldiers

led by the pirate Drake from invading La Coruña in 1589.

If she dies, the next time you spend your summer break in Sanjenjo

they'll likely speak with a Liverpool accent

and instead of octopus they'll eat "fish and chips".

- He needs oxygen. - We don't have any, this isn't a hospital.

- I'm going to find the doctor. - No, find a priest.

Someone has to administer his last rites.

Don't call a priest, he wouldn't want that.

He does not believe in God?

It must be terrible to be about to die

and not believe in God.

It is, I assure you.

Let's have a little order here. I need a report every hour.

- I have too much work. - Have Angustias do it.

- Angustias is playing nurse. - You want a report?

I'll give you one right now and you can write it down.

Right now there are 7 people infected but there will be more.

- There's no more room in the infirmary. - I know.

We'll have to put beds in the hallways.

I want solutions, not problems.

I already know all about those.

The only solution that I see is to try other antivirals.

- The one that we're using doesn't work. - Yes, but to do that

you would have to have contact with the outside.

- You can't leave the building. - It won't be necessary.

I can contact the laboratory

and have them leave the medicine in the box by the door.

I'll go, there won't be any danger of infection, I guarantee it.

How long until we'll know if they work?

I can't give you an exact time,

but anywhere from a few hours to a few days.

Doctor, we have an acute respiratory failure.

Time of death, 21:10.

We have to take the body out.

When everyone's asleep.

Don't fucking tell me, Susana, that you want to leave him her all night with the patients?

If we take him out now, everyone will see him.

Vargas, take him out.

Please.

All right

And request the antivirals.

"Attention, please.

Please move to the sleeping areas.

The lights will turn off at midnight".

Of course, we will take care of the funeral costs.

Yes, Mr. Prime Minister.

Good night.

How many patients are there?

14

And all because of some idiot who knows nothing about history.

Oh, yes, sure she has three masters from United States

and is a professor at one of those made-up universities.

God, but what is it with this country, that the stupider you are,

the higher you rise?

I've never heard you talk like that.

I've just never had the need to vent like this before today.

How's Alonso?

Bad.

He's told Angustias that he loves her

and that he loves you guys, that you're his family.

And he also loves me.

And Salvador.

Alcohol and fever

the best truth serums.

Without a doubt.

That and knowing you're going to die.

Well.

We should rest a bit, right? Come on.

Amelia.

I have to tell you something that I've never told anyone.

What.

- I snore big time. - Big time?

A lot, ok.

You're prettier when you smile.

Good night.

Good night.

We're going to die here, man.

And if we go outside?

And have a mammoth eat us? Ok, ok.

- Then.. - Then what?

No, nothing.

No, say it.

It's just

I was thinking that...

if we held each other...

we would warm each other us.

Ok.

But it doesn't mean anything, yeah?

Shit. Pepe, damn, it's like you don't even know me.

Of course, man.

One, two, three

four, five, six,

seven, eight, nine,

10, 11, 12

13, 14, 15

Here I come!

I found you.

What is wrong, Blanca?

Blanca, you can confide in me.

We have to leave Seville.

- Today. - Why?

Where?

Arévalo. Father found work in the fields.

And you know how things are, there in neither food nor work.

I will wait for you.

- I will probably never return. - I will look for you, I swear it.

Do not swear what you can not do, Alonso.

A little late to walk the dog, eh?

I'm going to pick up some antivirals that we've requested from the laboratory.

The ones we're using

- aren't having the desired effect. - Ah.

Hopefully it all works out soon

and no more of us have to die.

I'd better get going.

- The medicine will be there now. - Ah. Want company?

- That's not necessary, it will be just a moment. - Fine, fine.

Sorry, what's that?

It's... a medical cooler to carry the medicine.

Ah, of course.

Like I used to carry beer when I went down to the San Juan Resevoir,

Know what? In my time they were about this big, but red...

- with a black handle. - Ah.

- Well, see you later. - Bye.

Well, what? Are you going to turn on the radio or...

do I have to get the nurse to do it? Come on, wake up.

"At this time, the Madrid Atlético is trying to secure

their place in the First Division. Javier de Diego, tell us.

- After two years of being at the bottom..." - Thanks for being here,

- instead of going to the game. - Well.

We'll go next season when we get into the first division.

Let's hope that guy Manrique doesn't get on our nerves with his horn,

- like always. - "... Vincente Calderón stadium

is completely packed, totally full.

There aren't any tickets for this match in which the Ateti might reach

- the highest level...". - Turn off the radio.

Is something wrong?

Let's be honest, son.

I'll never see the Atleti in the First.

If we get there today, which, knowing these guys...

I don't believe it one bit.

And even if you and the doctor say that everything's going to be fine,

I know I don't have long left.

I want to tell you, I want...

I want to ask your forgiveness...

for not telling you how much I love you

and how proud I've always been of you.

- You don't have to say it. - Yes I do, damn it,

it needs to be said.

I was raised with the mantra that men don't cry

and that we have to be tough and strong. And to hell with that!

Please.

Don't let the same thing happen with your son.

I love you so much.

Me too, papá.

No come on, turn on the radio

we might have made a goal and we missed it.

- Come on. - "... later

the red and whites tied it up.

So, the Madrid Atlético 1, scored by Diego Alonso...".

Angustias.

Angustias, are you there?

Is something wrong, Germán?

I need a favor.

- Whatever you need. - Can you bring me a phone?

I have to talk to my son.

They've prohibited communication with the outside.

It's just that I can't go without telling him...

without him knowing how much...

how much you love him.

- Relax, I'll bring you a telephone. - Thank you.

Amelia.

- How's Alonso? - No new news.

- There's some funny stuff going on. - What?

I can't tell you here, too many ears listening.

- What? - Come with me, come on. Come.

I was fine

- and then suddenly... - That's normal.

- This virus sometimes acts like that. - Are you going to cure me?

- Yes, ma'am. - I'll do everything in my power.

- What's in that device? - They're called antivirals.

Mary, mother of God.

- What a devilish name. - Don't worry.

That will cure you.

It is just that in my time everything was cured with poultices and bleedings.

Seems like a witchcraft.

Yes. Maybe it is.

Try to rest.

- They've all received the complete doses. - Perfect.

Tonight will be crucial for them.

Within a few hours we should see if the treatment is taking effect.

- Do you think Vargas is hiding something? - If he's not,

- why did he lie about Mickey Mouse stuff? - Mickey Mouse?

About unimportant things.

Like when he said that the red stain was from his bic, and not blood.

- How do you know it wasn't ink? - Amelia, I'm a cop.

I've seen more blood than a butcher.

And then that stuff about the cooler.

He left with it and came back with boxes.

- That medication doesn't need refrigeration.

- Cultures need to be cold. - Cultures?

Maybe they're samples of the virus

- to analyse it. - But without permission.

The virus shouldn't leave here.

And when I went all Colombo on him, he almost peed himself.

That guy's hiding something.

The antiviral company is the one Marañon told us about,

Schäuble.

You're right. We have to tell Ernesto.

You.

It can not be.

Blanca.

Alonso.

How much time has passed?

A lifetime.

Are you returning to Seville to stay?

With your husband, I imagine.

No.

You are mistaken.

As the youngest daughter, I stayed home to care for my father until he died.

- He passed away a few weeks ago. - Damn.

My condolences.

And where will you live?

My cousin and her family have a house close to San Marcos.

And you?

Does someone wait for you?

I am a soldier.

I have never married.

A long time ago I decided that no woman should suffer my absences.

- I understand. - Also...

I never met a woman like you.

I am not here.

Try to breathe.

- What is going on? - Angustias, the oxygen bottle.

- Where is it? - With the stuff they brought from the laboratory.

I'm going.

Tell Vargas, but now.

Come on, Germán, come on.

- Don't die on me. - Hold on, damn it.

- He's not rsponding to the oxygen. - Bring the aspirator.

- The aspirator? - I'll go.

- Open his gown. - My God.

- Scalpel. - Here.

Suction the mucus and connect the respirator.

Is he unconscious?

He's alive.

"Attention, please.

- stay away from..." - So you're suspicious of Vargas.

We think he's sent the virus to some Germans,

to the "Someplace" laboratories... Whatever they're called.

We don't know his motives, but the samples have left the Ministry.

There's not time. Go to the company's headquarters, quickly.

- You know what you need to do. - Should we inform Susana?

No. I'll take responsibility.

- In the meantime, I'll get Vargas. - And the quarantine?

- It doesn't matter now. - That virus could spread

over the entire planet in 24 hours if it falls into the wrong hands.

We have nothing to lose.

If that nurse had just followed the protocol to remove his suit,

- none of this would have happened. - Don't say that.

I'm sorry.

I'm the one responsible for everything. I don't know who I'm trying to kid.

You wanted to save me.

I can't stop asking myself what Salvador would have done in my place.

He would have followed protocol, I suppose, although...

he talks a big game about how no agent gets left behind.

I'm sorry, Irene.

I only wanted to keep the promise I made you.

Ernesto has advised me,

- There's a call from the Prime Minister, it's urgent. - Again?

Did they say what they want?

Information, I suppose.

Shit.

Go, please.

"I'll never fail you."

2 Months Earlier

It's the first time I've kissed a superior.

Oh, yeah? How was it?

Well... for now I can't complain.

What are you thinking?

All this time.

So much pain, suffering, for nothing.

Yes, we have much to do.

We won't leave any agents behind, nor their families.

All this is going to change for the better, you'll see.

Including our history.

And what will happen to Salvador?

Times change.

You've given the virus to Schäuble.

Yes, so that they can make a vaccine in Germany.

In a few hours it will be on it's way to Munich.

The Hipocratic Oath means nothing to you.

Do you realise that, because of you, millions of people could die,

- like in 1918? - No, lives will be saved.

We should prepare ourselves in case the virus gets out.

- Who's going to spread it? - Anyone who's infected

- and goes outside. - Or Schäuble could

start a massive epidemic to get rich selling their vaccine.

- It's possible. - I suppose you'll get a cut.

It's probable.

Do you know what that means?

I'll remind you that I didn't start this mess.

But you've taken advantage of it to benefit yourself.

Yes, while I was saving the lives of a lot of patients,

- risking my own life, and for what? - You tell me.

For my piece of shit paycheck.

When I retire, I'll get a piece of shit pension.

Do you know what pension Susana Torres will get? A big one.

And an office, driver and secretary all on our, the taxpayer's, dime.

And why does she deserve it?

She's the head of the Ministry that preserves history

and sh doesn't even know who María Pita is.

If she would have listened to me,

no one would have died,

and I wouldn't have done what I did.

If you send me to that damn medieval castle, I'll deserve it.

But no more than she does.

The rules... are the rules.

I knew you would say that.

Why are you smiling?

You know you'll never in your life enjoy that money.

I know.

I'm smiling because the guy who's detaining me is someone I like.

You have ethics.

Not like some others.

If it were someone else, I would already be on a plane, far from here.

I'd bribe them and problem solved.

You are incorruptable.

It's been an honor to know you.

And shitty luck.

May I continue to treat my patients?

I would apprciate that, in fact.

Relax.

Let me know when it's time for my trip to the 11th century.

This is it?

- And how will we get in. - The back door.

I didn't know you were a locksmith, too.

A good cop should know all the tricks of a good criminal.

- I learned this from the Sundance Kid. - Was he a famous bull fighter?

Oh, the best. He had was so serious and really good with the stick.

I mean, Manolete who?

Pull.

Let's go in.

Ok, now it's your turn.

What do we do?

- Find the virus and destroy it. - We're screwed. But, how?

Like an old friend once said: "You're Spanish, improvise."

Well come on.

Off, off.

2nd Floor Laboratories: Microbiology Virology Bacteriology Microbiology Storage

- You look over there, and I'll go here. - Okay.

Virology

Pacino, I think this is it.

Let's see...

Impossible.

What's this?

It opens it using a fingerprint.

No go. Of course, I guess not just any finger will do.

Well, we'll have to find another finger.

All right.

We'll cut off his finger and up we go, yeah?

Don't fuck with me, there aren't many fingers left, my God.

Let's see.

Hold on.

- Good. - Very good.

Open, open, open.

Mother of God. This guy weighs a ton.

Are you cold? Why are you turning up the heat?

It's to kill the virus.

We'll leave it outside the freezer at the highest heat.

- You sure know what you're doing. - I've read up.

- Here it is. - There it is.

How does it open?

The key has to be here somewhere.

Damn.

Fuck, it's hot, man.

Be careful, yeah? You might catch a cold.

I love it. Every time I say something you turn into a tomato.

- Know what? - What?

The last time I opened one of these, there was a head inside.

- You and your stories. - I'm serious, a head.

It looked like this.

- Would you just open it and shut up already? - Ok, ok.

Whew, man.

My God.

How's it going with that key?

- It must be on here I guess. - Let's see, give it.

I don't know what they need so many keys for.

This one doesn't fit.

Let's see this one...

Well, you look.

That's not it.

- Don't touch anything. - Damn.

Here.

Our enemy is inside here.

- But, what are you going to do, open it? - Yes, calm down.

Just enough to let the heat in.

Son of a bitch.

It seems impossible that something so small can kill so many people.

- Let's go. - Yes.

- Day 3

How do you feel?

Better.

And Angustias?

She just left to take a break.

When she realised that the worst had passed,

I managed to convince her, if not... she would still be here, on the front line.

Easy.

The trick is to scare the octopus.

You dip it into boiling water three times.

Take it out, and then you cook it, depending on the size of the octopus,

about half an "horiña", yes? understand?

Bring me my brushes.

And an easel and... and a canvas, too.

I don't need a model. With these patients, I have more than enough.

You need to rest. You've been gravely ill

and you still aren't fully recovered.

Listen, I am Diego Velázquez, the great Diego Velázquez.

I still have many works to paint.

"La Venus del espejo", "El niño de Vallecas"...

Does "Las meninas" sound familiar?

I can not be here, waiting for Death to come and...

take me before my time.

The world needs my works.

The museums will not be the same without my paintings.

And Impressionism, eh? What would that be without me?

And Dalí? Hey!

Hey! At least bring me paper and pencil.

Thank you for everything, doctor. Without you, I don't know what we would have done.

I'm only doing my job.

- Have you spoken with Ernesto? - Not since yesterday. Why?

Just curious.

All of the patients are recovering nicely.

Yes, it seems like we are all better.

I didn't want to lose you.

I was so scared...

- 38 days later

Are you sure about this?

No, but something tells me that it's what I should do.

All rules have exceptions.

- Mine will be this. - Why?

Well, saving all those people

you've made it so that "Las meninas" will be painted,

Maria Pita will save La Coruña...

and you've saved a lot of people I care about

- like Alonso, like Germán... - Like Irene.

Yes,

like Irene.

It wouldn't be fair to lock you away the rest of your life.

after all you've done.

Well.

Are you sure you want to go there?

Yes, Córdoba in the 12th century had great doctors.

I've always wanted to meet Maimónides.

- Good luck. - Thank you.

Hey, Mariano y Pepe.

- Finally back, eh? - Yes.

And right now I'm going to ask for a transfer to Écija.

And me to the Western Sahara.

Well, Écija could be nice too.

No, one broken rule is enough.

I'm coming home.

I love you, son.

Yes, I know I keep saying it, but I don't care.

Ok.

You need to take care of yourself.

Thank you.

- Sure you just want water? - Thank you.

Yes, yes, you know I don't drink.

Thank you.

I see that not even an extreme situation can change you.

Instead of that suit, you should wear a superhero's cape.

Don't exaggerate.

We all have our weaknesses and our imperfections.

- You look well. - And what did you expect,

that I would go to the theatre or take up lawn bowling?

No. Look.

I don't have to get up early, I sleep like a log,

I'm not a slave to my pager... It's the good life.

I don't believe you.

You're right not to.

The truth it, you don't know how much I miss my office.

That Ministry hooks you like a drug.

Yes, that's what I wanted to talk about, your return to the Ministry.

Oh, God, damn allergies.

There.

And tell me, before you go on about what you came to talk about,

have there been any changes in history with all this mess?

- Not one. - Just as well.

Sincronized and edited by Chitorafa.

A great buisnessman wants the United States

to know our Argamasilla.

I've just learned that

the great Houdini has challenged him to demonstrate his powers.

Argamasilla is a star agent in the first half of the 20th century.

The 1924 Ministry fears that Argamasilla's trip

doesn't have as much to do with his shows

as it does with Hoover learning the secret of the Ministry.

There's nothing more ridiculous than a guy in a cape.

- Everything I did was to save your life. - At the cost of the lives of others

and putting the Ministry in danger. I'm not worth all that.

You.

Spain has a Ministry that can travel through history?

Who would you tell such an incredible secret to?

The American government.

They told me to give it to you secretly. Is it serious?

Very.

I see two men...

Oh!

And a death.

Ah!

- Stop him. - If you don't let me leave,

- I'll make a scene. - You won't do anything.

Ah, no? And why not?

- This must be very hard for you. - That doesn't matter now, Ernesto.

We have to intervene.

Damn.

And now it seems you need my help.

Don't make this harder on me, please.

If you think that I'm not going to enjoy this moment,

you don't know me.

Hold on.

I have lived this before.
